He DOES, however, have a stuffload of experience making an operating system. He was basically the lead behind developing the first 3 releases of Windows.
What would the PC industry be like if Valve released a PC-gaming friendly Operating System for Intel-based systems? Discuss!

Pretty much, yeah.

Why is it that every similar thread, someone says "Durr, they're making the Steam Box."
Wasn't that confirmed to be fake by Valve? I don't seem to see anything confirming that it is being made.

"I can see it already: Steambox up for trading for 250 buds."
Dammit, Marcem.
Haha, that's pretty interesting. I can't wait to see what it is.
